"In May of 2022 I graduated with a degree in horticulture, I chose to study plants because I admire their strength and beauty. I was able to obtain a job at A Garden Party and most recently a professional Horticulture internship at Walt Disney World. Both opportunities have provided me a chance to learn, use my gardening skills, and personally grow. Epcot is a magical place to put my gardening skills to use.
 
The joy on the visitors' faces as they enjoy the displays is amazing. When I return, I will be working to finish my business degree. I plan on using my passion and degrees to make a difference in the horticulture industry.
 
Obtaining a profession horticultural internship and receiving a Cumberland Foundation Scholarship are both big steps in making a difference in the Horticulture industry."

"After watching my brother earn this very scholarship, I was determined to follow in his footsteps.

Having this mindset, I set my goal to focus on academics and attendance through each year of high school and in college. By receiving this scholarship designation, I have earned the recognition of my outstanding achievements.

Because of the School Counts! Scholarship, I was able to lift the financial burden from my parents and have had a very successful college experience at the Cumberland Campus and look forward to completing my degree in Education.

The School Counts! Program awarded me for my achievements. I did it! I believed in my self and the School Counts! Scholarship Program believed in me.

Thank you, Cumberland Campus Foundation for the opportunity to be part of the School Counts! Scholarship Program."
